Abstract: Un ensemble (200) de filtre à carburant emploie une base (212) sur laquelle est montée une cartouche (214) d'élément de filtre jetable. Ladite cartouche (214) comprend un système de filtre à deux étages dans lequel le carburant s'écoule axialement jusqu'à un élément (274) de filtre primaire destiné à éliminer la matière particulaire et les gouttelettes coalescentes, et axialement jusqu'à un étage (292) de filtre secondaire faisant office de barrière à l'eau. Le carburant filtré s'écoule axialement et sort par l'intermédiaire d'un passage de sortie (249) se trouvant dans la base. L'eau peut être collectée dans une cuvette (242). La cartouche est maintenue sur la base par un collier (263) venant contre une structure (281) de jointure à retournement de la cartouche. Selon un mode de réalisation, ladite base (212) a une configuration de boîte métallique destinée à recevoir ladite cartouche.

Abstract: An outer cone (18) is provided which is intended to receive the ball (21) of a joint. In order to permit with one and the same shaft (11) different CCD angles and/or antetorsion angles, the outer cone (18) intended for receiving the ball (21) of a joint is formed on the circumferential surface of a sleeve (16). This sleeve (16) has an inner cone (17) with which it can be attached removably to an outer cone (14) formed on the shaft (11). The axes (19, 15) of the outer cone (18) and of the inner cone (17) of the sleeve (16) intersect at an acute angle (20). Means (23, 24) formed on the sleeve (16) and on the shaft (11) prevent a twisting of the attached sleeve (16) relative to the outer cone (14) of the shaft (11). <IMAGE>

Abstract: Matériau composite coulé produit à partir de particules et d'une composition présélectionnée d'alliage matriciel qui humidifie difficilement les particules. On mélange tout d'abord les particules avec un alliage mouillant dont la composition permet de mouiller rapidement les particules, dans des conditions qui font que l'alliage mouillant humidifie lesdites particules. L'alliage mouillant est choisi de telle sorte qu'il n'ait pas d'éléments d'alliage en plus de ceux présents dans l'alliage matriciel présélectionné, et de sorte qu'il ait, de préférence, une teneur en éléments inhibant la mouillabilité. Après avoir été mouillés et mélangés, les ingrédients d'alliage restants sont ajoutés à la masse en fusion pour donner à la matrice la composition désirée. Ce procédé peut s'appliquer à des matériaux composites coulés renfermant des particules réactives ainsi que des particules non-réactives. L'invention concerne également un matériau composite coulé formé avec environ 5 à environ 35 % en volume d'un matériau de renforcement particulaire, par exemple du carbure de silicium, noyé dans une matrice d'alliage d'aluminium ayant environ de 8,5 à environ 12,6% en poids de silicium. Ce matériau composite contenant du silicium est tout particulièrement adapté pour être utilisé en tant qu'alliage de fonderie à des fins de refonte.

Abstract: A solar roof collector comprising a plate collector with a plurality of transparent conduits to channel a thin film of water from an insulated reservoir in order to increase the temperature of water therein as a result of heat absorption in the plate collector. An evaporative chiller including transparent air ducts in which air is circulated receives in the air ducts pre-heated water from the insulated reservoir, distributed therein preferably under the form of a thin film. Some water in the air ducts is vaporized and the vapor saturated air is passed through a vortex condensor, precipitating water which generates thermal energy. The thermal energy may be used to drive a gas turbine or another type of energy conversion device.

Abstract: Large format TV tubes must produce a high peak brightness in order to be acceptable to the user. This results in a large beam current in bright areas of the picture and in a subsequent defocusing of the resulting spot on the display and in a loss of the sharpness of vertical and horizontal transitions. The apparent sharpness of a vertical transition is gained by modifying the deflection of the TV receiver such that, at vertical transitions, the line on the bright side of the transition is deflected away from the transition region. Advantageously, the amount of vertical scan modulation corresponds to a multi-level control signal and depends on the grey levels of the transition.

Abstract: An apparatus for providing a fluidized bed to effect the separation of a mixture of articles having at least a first density and a second density that is greater than the first density into separate groups. The apparatus includes an inclined trough which is supplied at an input end with either a fluidization medium, such as sand, or a mixture of articles from which a fluidized bed is formed by forcing gas upwardly through the bottom of the trough and through the fluidization medium or the mixture. In the case where a fluidization medium such as sand is used, the mixture of articles is introduced into the fluidized bed medium so as to be entrained therewith to effect separation as the articles travel in the direction of flow of the fluidized bed medium. Vertical oscillatory movement is imparted to the inclined trough to improve the separation and layering where the mixture of articles is fluidized, or to improve the density uniformity where a fluidization medium such as sand is fluidized as the bed.

Abstract: A suction device for membrane microtiter plates which has an evacuable chamber having an opening with an approximately horizontal sealing surface to provide a support to the edges of a membrane microtiter plate which is placed thereon from above and can be opened for insertion and removal of a microtiter plate receiver and a support for positioning of the microtiter plate receiver in the chamber below the membrane microtiter plate and in parallel thereto, is to be handled, in particular, in a simpler manner and with less risk of contamination. For this purpose, the support is arranged, for example, on an insert which can be pushed into the chamber up to a charging position, in which chamber the microtiter plate receiver is located below the membrane microtiter plate and the insert rests with a front plate sealingly against the edge of a charging opening in the chamber and can be pushed out of the chamber into an accessible position for insertion and removal of the microtiter plate receiver.

Abstract: A system for verifying write data includes a host computer (10), a controller (16) having a write data path network (18) and a read data path network (34), and a disk drive array (D0..., D3, DP) for storing write data. The host computer provides host cyclic redundancy check characters that are appended to blocks of input write data. The write data blocks are divided into subblocks that are processed through separate channels and ports (PORT0,...PORT3). Port cyclic redundant check characters are appended to each data subblock, including a parity subblock. The read data path network (34) is coupled to receive the data subblocks with the appended host and port cyclic redundancy check characters from the write data path network means and has error detection circuitry (36, 38, 40, 42) for verifying the write data during the write mode. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The invention relates to a process for producing dense sintered articles from metal or ceramic materials. A flowable casting composition consisting of the pulverised material, a binder and a solvent is poured into a predetermined mould and subsequently dried. The binder is removed from the green compact thus formed and the latter is sintered. The proportion of binder in the casting composition should be minimised. Expediently, the mould is vibrated during the casting. Heating control during drying with simultaneous application of a vacuum is advantageous. Multi-layered articles can also be produced by suitable application of the process.
